New Content Partners

Alongside grade-specific highlights, we’re also introducing new partnerships that enrich our library with diverse perspectives and resources.

Getting Better Foundation: The Getting Better Foundation is dedicated to spreading non-partisan media and information literacies (MIL) to help lessen polarization and vitriol, foster resilience and peace, and to preserve democracy. Their mission: “To build trust through the truth about the positive evolution of human progress” lends itself to countering mis and disinformation, bringing awareness to parents, families, students, educators, and legislators of the importance of including MIL lessons to hone critical thinking skills – especially in our youth.

Camp Quality: Camp Quality is an Australian children’s cancer charity. They bring positivity, fun and laughter back into the lives of kids facing cancer. Supporting children impacted by cancer, their original series Bloom is a heartfelt production exploring the emotional realities of diagnosis, mental wellbeing, and family dynamics.

Movies & TV Highlights

Building on these collaborations, our Movies & TV collection continues to grow with documentaries and series that spark curiosity well beyond the classroom.

Trust Me: “Trust Me” is an award-winning documentary that brings awareness to people’s need for media and information literacy to lessen polarization, foster trust and resilience, and preserve democracy. Educators can dive more deeply into the subject matter thanks to the companion guide produced with the News Literacy Project. The guide offers collegiate and parental discussion guides to go along with the film to encourage critical thinking in students using creative fact-checking, media consumption, and creation modules. Students are encouraged to utilize the seven quality standards professional journalists use when creating and sharing posts and content online, becoming more trustworthy communicators and citizens in the process. Watch Trust Me.

Golden Opulence: A History of Luxury: Take your students on a journey through the history of luxury in Anatolia, exploring fashion, art, food, and architecture across millennia and its historical and cultural influences. Watch Golden Opulence.

Featured Resource: Hook and Activate

Finally, we’re spotlighting a practical teaching tool designed to optimize using video in the classroom.

“Hook and Activate” is a one-page resource designed to help teachers set students up for successful learning before watching a video. Each guide includes a “Hook” to spark curiosity and an “Activate Prior Knowledge” task to connect new learning to what students already know. This approach supports inclusive practice, reduces cognitive load, and aligns with High-Quality Instructional Materials (HQIM) standards.
